Description

A notorious serial killer is back

An edgy female police detective. An ambitious FBI special agent. Together they are at the heart of the ticking-clock investigation into a psychopathic murderer. The bond they forge in this crucible sets the stage for high-stakes suspense.

Detective Kara Quinn is on an early morning jog in Liberty Lake when she discovers the body of a young nurse. The manner of death reveals a highly controlled rage.

Word quickly reaches FBI special agent Matt Costa that this murder fits the profile of the elusive Triple Killer, who compulsively strikes every three years, targeting three victims, each three days apart. This time they have a chance to stop him. But only if they can decipher the meaning of his pattern to figure out who he is and where he is hiding before he strikes again.

The stakes have never been higher, because if they fail, one of their own team may be next…

  • A better plot than story

    The Third to Die has the basic outline of a really good book. The plot elements are strong, and the author is pretty good at cop procedure. But her prose is turgid and repetitive. And her dialogue is so wooden it’s practically petrified.
  • Title good

    I love Allison Brennan's new series about Mobile Response Team! The Third to Die kept me on the edge of my seat and up many late nights reading. Allison Brennan as once again proven that she is a wonderful storyteller. I loved all the new characters that she introduced. The Third to Die is about a newly created FBI Mobile Response Team, under the leadership of Mathias "Matt" Costa. The Triple Killer strikes again before the Mobile Response Team is officially formed and the team members selected separately make their way to Liberty Lake, Washington. The Triple Killer has killed six victims over the course of six years, always on March 3, 6 and 9, three years apart. While on a forced vacation from LAPD, Detective Kara Quinn stumbles across the body of the latest victim, a nurse Victoria Manners, hours after The Triple Killer murdered her. Like the others, there are no clues or evidence left behind. Matt enlists the help of Dr Caroline Jones, FBI Profiler to assist with the case. Kara assists Matt with the case. I love how the team is able to connect all the other cases together and hope to find the killer before he completes the third kill this time around. Like all of Allison Brennan's, The Third to Die is filled with incredible characters, thrilling plot twists and unexpected turns of events. I really love everything about this new series and cannot wait for the upcoming books in the series. Allison Brennan continues to amaze me with her writing and to deliver incredible thrillers.
